FIITJEE FORTUNATE 40
I dream of study at an IIT.... But my parents have mo means to give me good school education and support my coaching for IIT-JEE

FORTUNE 40 - A social initiative by FIIT JEE to ensure success for the economically deprived. It provide students with a platform where they are able to access the collective knowledge of experts that can help them in achieving their goal. It has been our endeavour at FIITJEE to make this pool of knowledge accessible to as many students as possible, purely based on their capabilities & potential and not on their financial ability. In consonance with this belief FIITJEE has supported financially weak students with scholarships & grants.

The program will financially support capable students presently studying in class VIII (going to IX) & class X (going to XI) whose parental income is below Rs.10,000/- per month. FIITJEE will support these meritorious students in their preparation for achieving their dream goal by awarding 100% scholarships for FIITJEE programs & 100% hostel charges waiver. For Integrated School Program not all schools will be giving a 100 % scholarship on school fee, but the school fee would be very nominal to support these students. The FORTUNATE 40 batch for each program, at each location, will have a maximum of 40 students only.

Students will have to appear for a selection test on 10th February, 2008. There is no registration fee for the selection test. To be eligible for the FORTUNATE 40 batch students have to clear the individual subject cutt-offs & the total cut-off. Selected students will be notified and admitted to the program of their choice with 100% scholarships.

The final discretion of award of scholarship in each case will remain with FIITJEE and this decision will be final and binding on the candidate.
